Baggage transport on Portuguese Central

[Diane Owens]

Can anyone recommend a baggage transport company on the Portugese Central Camino pleas?
Also is there a baggage transport company in Germany and Switzerland walking the Camino Jakobi?

On the central I saw people use Top

We used TOP last spring starting in Porto. With WhatsApp (+351915989726), we contacted the company every afternoon/evening for our next day’s pickup. Worked perfectly! Both recommend and would use this transport company again TOP. Bom Caminho!

I used Tui Tran twice and their service was faultless! We each had a bag for transport this year. For 6 stages for the two bags, the cost was €72 + €10 for exchanging currency.
Other companies do it also. I used Camino Facil on the English route and found their services also to be very good —they also operate most of the Portuguese route route too, I believe.

We just used Pilbeo on the Portugués this spring - the BEST and most reliable. Price was comparable or better than others.

I used one last year, I believe Pilbao, but discovered that they would not transport on the Spiritual Variant at the end. Do check and see how far they cover this year, because other companies do cover that leg.

Yes Pilbao doesn’t cover the Spiritual Variant. The only luggage company that did was Caminofacil. I would advise anyone wanting to use them to first check out their website and see the hotels/ guesthouses that are their partners . It would be easier for the pilgrim to stay at the same accommodation . This makes pickup / drop off much easier because not all air b n b owners would wait for pickup or delivery .

I use Top and will be setting off in 2 days times. Portuguese Coastal + Spiritual Variant over 14 days = 96 Euros.
